Shady Employers
a friend and i did a group interview and were hired two days ago, as sales & marketing consultants for HMi. but it felt a little sketchy. we started training yesterday, and even though the job seemingly pays really well, we walked out at the first break in training. it took 10-15 minutes for the trainer to explain the intricacies of our income. we did a little math during a smoke outside, realized the immense mistake we were about to make and decided to graciously bow out.
i've never had someone try and trick me into a job like that before. and her pant suit was way too tight.

FYI: Be wary of any position that says "entry level marketing" as their description. I've gone to an interview before where I thought it was a position for someone wanting to get into marketing, and really it was selling knives. Not that there doesn't have to be someone out there to sell knives, but PLEASE don't act like you're there to train me how to be a marketing professional, either!
I'm so tempted to start a list of all the companies that try to trick you this way, so you all know who to stay away from. That way we can all learn!

On December 6, I will be starting a new job!! I'll still be a case worker, just at a different agency. I am really excited about it because this job pays me SO much more than the job I am currently at.

Pending store-management approval, it looks like I will be transfering out of the deli and over to Starbucks the day after Christmas.

In a bizarre case of good timing...
My new job (I've been here three months) just took a good turn. My boss is leaving after the new year and I'm being promoted to head of the marketing department!
